Putin receives Slovak PM Fico in Kremlin for Russia's Victory Day

Introduction
Since Ukraine declared independence from Russia, the relationship between S
Slovakia and Russia has been strained. On Saturday, Russian President Vladi
Vladimir Putin greeted Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico with open arms whe
when he visited the Kremlin for Victory Day celebrations.

The meeting was cordial and professional with some interesting points. Firs
First, Putin expressed gratitude that Fico had made the trip despite the ob
obstacles. Second, Fico stated his opposition to creating any kind of new I
Iron Curtain between Europe, the European Union, and the Russian Federation
Federation. He supports normal, standard, friendly, and mutually beneficial
beneficial relations. Third, the two leaders discussed energy needs, specif
specifically focusing on meeting Slovakia's demands.

A criticism from German Chancellor Friedrich Merz suggests that relations b
between Russia and the EU have spiraled to an all-time low after Putin orde
ordered troops into neighboring Ukraine four years ago.

A few key points are worth remembering
- Slovakia is a central European country dependent on Russian oil.
- Fico visited Russia for the second time for this key patriotic event.
